I tt Grand jury, in their report,
! rccen, published, recommends that
I've board of supervisors cancel the
contract with the county contractor,
aying that the recommendation was
justified by the evidence and facts
leforc that body. The board OF SUI
bery;sors will be 1t loss Ia know how
i, act in the matter. The question
naturally arises, il the facts were suf-
f-ient TO remove the contractor,
N ld they not also have been suf-
tpnt 10 have caused the grand jury
lludirt him. IL would be naturally
yyh;errcd, bv the failure t. indict, that
Dlbcrc arc not sufficient grounds for
lremoyal. and the board of supcrvis-
Iors would run the risk of q heavy law
suit by so doing.
